Happy Earth Day. Please think about ways to look after our planet, today and every day.
What a great start to Summer Term we have had. It has been lovely to see everybody come back happy in their summer uniforms.
We have really enjoyed our English this week, we have used pictures to write our own story. Each day we have added to our story, they are amazing. We are looking forward to Monday when we are going to record ourselves on the iPad reading out our work.
In maths we have been practising halving numbers and dividing. We have found this tricky, but much easier if we know our times tables. Everybody has tried really hard.
We loved our PE lesson in the sunshine on Tuesday afternoon. We did some orienteering where we practised reading a map with symbols. We also practised some cricket skills including throwing and batting.
We have started our new PSHE and science topics this week. They are both about being healthy. We are looking forward to learning about the human body and how to make sure we look after ourselves.
